Shadow of the Colossus for Playstation 2. It's by the same team that did Ico and is considered one of the greatest games ever. EVER.
It's super artsy, too. I still haven't finished it myself, but it really is a work of art. 3nodding

They are making a new one for the PS3 this year. It centers around a boy with similar garb and horns. He meets a large beast that helps him get around. Not sure of the actual story yet though.

For PS2? Really? biggrin I may have to see if I can find it. I do have a PS3 and an X-box 360 but I always seem to come back to the PS2... it might the fact that there's just no replacing those Gust/NIS America games like Ar Tonelico, Mana Khemia and Altelier Iris. ... now I have the urge to play Ar Tonelico now and I still have some pages left on my manual to read. ._.

@Dragn: Yeah! I saw trailers for that--it looks really good. The Last Guardian. 3nodding I like how the monster looks like a cross between a Colossus and a German shepherd. xd
I want to play Ico just so I can say I have, but escort missions and the idea of the creepy, shadow creatures popping out every time Yorda and Ico get separated really freaks me out. sweatdrop
Team Ico really has a way of worming into your head despite their minimalistic style. I thought for sure I was going to sympathize with the Collosi since then never actually did anything, but five minutes in I was totally galloping into the sunset shouting, "FOR MONOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!"

My friend has Ico and I played it once for like 5 hours. It was pretty funny because my friend wanted to do something else but I kept saying, "NO! I must keep playing this! It's pretty!" He got mad at me for a while. Then we played LFD2 and he got over it. xd

Yep. I like how they all connect to each other. I think the new one is supposed to be a separate story. Not sure though so don't quote me on it. sweatdrop

Yeah, I know--the horns and all.
I think the third one's gonna connect to the others, as the titular Guardian is obviously modeled after the Colosi in some form.
...Perhaps we'll get a hint as to WHAT exactly the Colosi were doing... being all colossus and all?

I have to say, I'm disappointed in the voting. I felt like I stayed true to my character, and just because it didn't fall in line with a standard way of achieving things, it got shafted. Could I have bum-rushed people? Yes. Would I have enjoyed taking people out before the competition was over? Hell yea. But Jin wouldn't. His way is to use every tool at his disposal while hiding his own. If that means using another shinobi as a tracking hound, so be it. If that's using the darkness as a cover, why not? And if in a free-for-all, two people are focusing on one; Why get involved and not only waste energy, but also draw attention to yourself? If the rules had been to eliminate your opponents, he would fall in suit. But for a last-man-standing? I'm not too sure what you guys even mean by defensively, and as to improve my Rp, I'd like to know what I could have done...better? I guess. I dunno.
I have no problem not passing, even if I feel it odd that I passed every round and still failed. If you feel I'm not ready, then I'm not ready. I just don't agree with the reason (Although that isn't to say, that I didn't see some valid point's/votes that said no.)
Edit: On a side note, Nor did post : As a note to the other Kage's we are here to vote based on Skill and Talent; NOT weather we like the way a ninja operates. In another voting forum. I kind of wish it had been said in mine as well.

The Raikage was referring to Yuzuki's obvious blood-lust, which caused a lot of the kage to pause when voting for her--how their mind operates. Even then, that's totally something that SHOULD be considered when promoting what could essentially be called sentient weapons to higher ranks.
What the Tsuchikage was referring to in her vote was how Jin didn't do anything when the Wairudokaado launched their attack. I heard you were unable to post at the time or something, but as far as staying in-character goes, Tsuchikage considers protecting others to be job one.
...Though if the match had continued normally, she would have totally voted yes for Jin. She loves to see people take the defensive.

I honestly wish Ryumon had been more agressive when fighting....I was so busy having him play it safe that I never really gave a reason why he SHOULD have been passed. Pretty little plans will only take him so far. I'll just have to be less passive next time. I am particularly excited about getting to see the kage's fight.

In game, the Tsuchikage has no way of knowing that Jin returned to the village to mobilize the Mist's full military might in order to aid both the people in the cave and protect their home should this unexpected surprise spill over into the domestic.
I'd call his fighting defensive, but I wouldn't pose it as if he did nothing. In the first match, it wasn't a fight. In the second, Jin attacked first. And in the third, the snake was as much defense as it was offense. With the smaller snakes moving into position and the fight about to start, could it really be called defensive? Imagine if the snake wasn't there. Then Jin was standing there making his own plans same as the others.
